A 71-year-old Chinese national, Mr. Su Sihan, was arrested in the Thonburi area of Bangkok on 21st October at 3:00 PM by officers from Thailand’s Immigration Division 1.

 

The operation was led by Pol. Maj. Gen. Prasat Khemprasith, head of Immigration Division 1, alongside Pol. Col. Rapeepat Utsaha, Pol. Col. Kajphon Pathamang, and Pol. Lt. Col. Chayut Nilprasert. Mr. Su had entered Thailand on 7th July 2023, on a temporary visa, but it was revoked on 3rd April 2024, marking a 201-days overstay.

Prior to the arrest, the investigative team had learned that Mr. Su was wanted by Chinese authorities for fraud. A warrant for his arrest had been issued by the Public Security Bureau in Chaozhou, China.

 

The Thai Immigration Office had already revoked his visa.

The authorities charged Mr. Su with overstaying his visa and handed him over to investigators at the Immigration Division for further processing. They are coordinating with the Chinese Embassy in Thailand to arrange his extradition and prosecution according to legal procedures, reported Siam Rath.

It would sink a factory ship.

Mr Su ... Mr Su ...   how do you do ...    

oh dear  '   looks like your in the poo ...

 

Isn't it crazy?!

The Thai police caught him because of "the investigative team had learned that Mr. Su was wanted by Chinese authorities for fraud."

 

One of the reasons the 90-days reporting has been launched, was to catch the people who changed their address without reporting to the IMMO, especially criminals.

 

I didn't read of any case when the officials caught somebody who didn't make the 90-report. The same in this action. My question: for what reason do we, the falangs, have  the NONSENSE-duty to make this 90-day-report? Only to earn some xxxx-money by the IMMO?

Revoked his visa and then what?

Nothing, until they learnt that he had an arrest warrant in China, without that tip-off the 205 days overstay would have continued.

Not even a year. Meh.
